To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover pa-
nel on the lower front
part of the washing
machine (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwi-
se (see figure): a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly nor-
mal;
3. clean the inside tho-
roughly;
4. screw the lid back
on;
5. reposition the panel,
making sure the hooks
are securely in place
before you push it onto
the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there
are any cracks, it should be replaced immedia-
tely: during the wash cycles, water pressure is
very strong and a cracked hose could easily
split open.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and electricity
supplies
Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system in-
side the washing machine and help to prevent
leaks.
Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it
and during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washing machine
The outer parts and rubber components of the
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth
soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use
solvents or abrasives.
Caring for the door and drum of
your appliance
Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to
prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning
pump which does not require any maintenance.
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)
may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the
pump, situated in its bottom part.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and
unplug the appliance.
How to clean the detergent dispenser
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
Cleaning:
Then clean the dispenser under a tap (fig. 3)
using an old toothbrush and, once the pair of
siphons inserted in the top of compartments
1 and 2 (fig. 4) have been pulled out, check
whether the same are not clogged and then
rinse them.
Reassembly:
Do not forget to rein-
sert the pair of siphons
into the special housings
and then to replace the
dispenser into its seat,
clicking it into place (fig.
4, 2 and 1).
Disassembly:
Press lightly on the
large button on the
front of the detergent
dispenser and pull it
upwards (fig. 1).
